Deborah Story

Psychologist
3500 Virginia Beach Blvd, STE 202, Virginia Beach, VA
Hi, I’m Dr. Deborah Story—a licensed clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience helping people feel more grounded, less overwhelmed, and more connected to who they are. I work with individuals who are thoughtful, often exhausted, and stuck in their own heads—navigating anxiety, mood swings, burnout, or trauma. If you’re tired of holding everything together while silently falling apart, you’re in the right place. My style is warm, collaborative, and practical—with a little humor to help carry the hard stuff. You won’t get one-size-fits-all advice here. We’ll work together to understand what’s really going on beneath the surface, shift patterns that aren’t working, and build tools that actually fit your life. Therapy should feel like a space to breathe, not another place where you have to perform. I draw from a range of clinical experience across hospitals, schools, correctional systems, and private practice. I’ve worked with people from all walks of life—and I bring genuine respect, curiosity, and compassion to every session. Therapy with me is a space where you can exhale, reflect, and reconnect with your inner strengths (even the ones that feel a little buried right now). If you’re ready to stop holding it all together on your own, I’m here. Let’s make space for clarity, healing, and trust—in yourself and in the process.
